The operation instruction of the user includes, for example, an operation of inputting information (such as a car return location) required for applying for returning the shared car, an operation of transmitting the input information, and the like. For the car return place, for example, the current position of the information terminal 1 may be set by default in the car return place setting field, and the user may be allowed to arbitrarily change the car return place.
Subsequently, the identification part 212 of the vehicle management server 2 identifies the transport vehicle that arrives at the return location earliest based on the return application message received by the reception part 211 and the current position of each transport vehicle (step S202).
Subsequently, the first transmitting part 213 of the vehicle management server 2 transmits the return information to the communication device 3 mounted on the transportation vehicle identified in step S202 (step S203). The transportation vehicle associated with the communication device 3 that has received the car return information starts moving to the car return place contained in the car return information. Then, the operation ends.
As described above, with the car sharing system 100 in this embodiment, when the vehicle management server 2 receives the use application message containing the use start time and the rental place of the shared car from the information terminal 1, the vehicle management server 2 can identify the transport vehicle that arrives at the rental place before the use start time based on the current position of each transport vehicle that transports the shared car, transmit the movement instruction message to the identified transport vehicle to instruct the identified transport vehicle to move to the rental place, and transmit the information on the shared car being transported by the transport vehicle to the information terminal 1 that has transmitted the use application message.
With this configuration, even when there is no parking lot near the user's station or on the user's activity route, the user can ride the shared automobile at the selected rental place designated by the user. Therefore, with the automobile sharing system 100 in this embodiment, user convenience is improved.
With the automobile sharing system 100 in this embodiment, when there is no transport vehicle that arrives at a rental site before the use start time, the vehicle management server 2 can identify the transport vehicle that arrives at the rental site earliest. With this configuration, although a certain waiting time is required from the use start time, the user can ride the shared automobile at any rental place designated by the user.
Further, with the automobile sharing system 100 in the present embodiment, when the vehicle management server 2 receives the return application message containing the return location of the shared automobile from the information terminal 1, the vehicle management server 2 can identify the transport vehicle that has arrived at the return location earliest and transmit the return information containing the information on the shared automobile to be returned and the return location to the identified transport vehicle. With this configuration, the shared cars to be returned to can be collected quickly, thus allowing the user to return the shared cars anywhere.
Modification examples

The above-described embodiments are therefore to be construed in all aspects as illustrative and not restrictive. For example, the order of the above-described processing steps may be arbitrarily changed or may be executed in parallel without any contradiction in the details of processing.
In the above-described embodiment, when there is no transport vehicle that arrives at the rental place before the use start time, the identification portion 212 identifies the transport vehicle that arrives at the rental place earliest; however, the object to be identified is not limited to a transportation vehicle. For example, shared cars may be identified. In this case, in addition to the shared automobile being transported by the transport vehicle, the shared automobile parked in the fixed parking lot may be included in the object to be recognized. In this modification, an example of an operation for applying for using a shared automobile will be described with reference to fig. 4.
The processing of steps S301 to S303 shown in fig. 4 is similar to the processing of steps S101 to S103 described above shown in fig. 2. Therefore, the description thereof is omitted.
In step S303 of fig. 4, when it is determined that there is a transport vehicle that arrives at the rental place before the use start time (yes in step S303), the processing proceeds to step S305 (described later).
On the other hand, in step S303, when it is determined that there is no transport vehicle that reaches the rental place before the use start time (no in step S303), the identification portion 212 of the vehicle management server 2 identifies the vehicle that is closest to the rental place at the use start time (step S304).
Subsequently, the first transmission part 213 of the vehicle management server 2 determines whether the vehicle identified in step S302 or step S304 is a transportation vehicle (step S305). When the determination is negative (no in step S305), the processing proceeds to step S307 (described later).
In step S305, when it is determined that the identified vehicle is a transportation vehicle (yes in step S305), the second transmission unit 214 of the vehicle management server 2 transmits a movement instruction message to the communication device 3 mounted on the transportation vehicle identified in step S302 or step S304 (step S306). The transportation vehicle associated with the communication apparatus 3 that has received the movement instruction message starts moving to the rental place contained in the movement instruction message.
Subsequently, the second transmission part 214 of the vehicle management server 2 transmits the rental-car information of the shared car being transported by the transport vehicle identified in step S302 or step S304 or the rental-car information of the shared car identified in step S304 to the information terminal 1 that has transmitted the use application message in step S301 (step S307). The user of the information terminal 1 having received the rental-vehicle information can check information on the transport vehicle or the shared car going to the rental place, or information on the shared car parked closest to the rental place. Then, the operation ends.
With the automobile sharing system 100 in this modification, when there is no transport vehicle that arrives at a rental place before the use start time, the vehicle management server 2 can identify the vehicle that is closest to the rental place at the use start time, and transmit information about the identified vehicle to the information terminal 1 that has transmitted the use application message. With this configuration, although the user is required to move slightly from the rental place designated by the user, the user can ride the shared automobile near any rental place designated by the user.
In the above-described embodiment, the first transmitting portion 213 transmits the returning information to the communication device 3 mounted on the transporting vehicle identified by the identifying portion 212; however, the destination to which the return information is transmitted is not limited thereto. For example, the return information may be transmitted to the communication devices 3 of all the transportation vehicles, or the return information may be transmitted to the communication devices 3 of all the transportation vehicles existing within a predetermined range from the return location.
The components of the information terminal 1, the vehicle management server 2, and the communication device 3 are not limited to those in the above-described embodiments. Any components may be added as desired.
